    I have been searching for reasons my German Pink is having trouble. It's looking like it's getting a bit of blight. I wasn't sure because the yellowing leaves are not just isolated to the bottom. The blossoms also have been falling off. My plants are huge for southern MI but haven't set fruit. It's last of all the varieties to set fruit. My volunteer borage isn't harming my tomatoes yet but I will keep an eye on them. I think it's only Orange Icicle that it is competing with. I'm going to look now.

      They might need pruning, and bone meal helps to set fruit

    Yep, Don’t touch me. I once left a tomato do it’s thing because the squash grew around it and it there was no blight on it like the rest had. I expect blight to come August 1st. And yes, the borage can get monstrous and think some of all the volunteers will get booted to the backfield by the bee hives. Did I tell you my neighbors bees took off, then returned, then took off again only to return again. Hope they stay now. Love the giant marigolds and they get big.
    Your dressed like it’s cold there 😂-that’s me to keep the mosquitoes off. Tomatoes look like they are doing well. It will be a couple weeks for mine to get there yet.
    I’m at a dilemma right now with all this rain. We just got doused again tonight and total so far is over 1.5” on top of previous rain. They say 3-5” through to late Saturday. If it’s not lightening out I will throw tarps and plastic over onions and garlic. In the morning. We have flood warnings and not worried about that so much as I am about the mosquitoes. There must have been a brief break in the clouds to the south as I was so excited to see the Strawberry Moon come up just now. I snapped a pic in the rain and brought two mosquitoes in-Ugh!
    I have copper and sulphur ready for whatever mildew or fungus comes next. The forecast looks dry after this and hope lower humidity. Have to tie everything up tomorrow also. I don’t want to monkey with plants when they are wet, but I don’t have much choice. No fun with a head net on and dressed like an Eskimo. I’m glad I didn’t heavily mulch this year.
    Yep, I believe you are correct on just letting the tomatoes be.

      The mornings are chilly at 5am but it's beautiful out. No sound besides the wild birds. But today we were sweating by 630am. It's horrible heat again. It kicked my butt today.

      @@ourbackyardgarden don’t know what we all will do soon. We just had 2” of rain yesterday into the night and just went through another all day event that dumped another 3” and close call with tornadoes. A few things were tipped. The oak was doing the hula and we got our helmets on. Some other areas south had touch down and some flooding all over several states around here. Lights went out for several hours, my phone had no reception and it’s like a jungle outside-swampy mess with a gazillion mosquitoes. It’s disgusting. Suppose to be better tomorrow but we have more rain for Tuesday and Friday.

    I'm having a great tomato season so far to. In section 5 Adirondacks upstate NY. Raised beds trellis like yours with air flow being my priority. Trying new varieties this year . Kellogg's are in my batch for a first time this year but by far the best new plant is called a silver fur tree tomatoes. Very odd leaves / plant. Highly productive, disease "resisting" . Thanks for sharing your plants .

    Hi Leigh, Your tomatoes are looking so healthy! Are you suggesting keeping other plants away from your potato-varieties?

    • @ourbackyardgarden
      @ourbackyardgarden  3 місяці тому

      Hi Gail, yes, keep them away from all other tomatoes on a trellis of their own. It made a huge difference. They look incredible with huge fruits. Can't say how this day will end for the garden though. It's like an oven. Feels like over 100 here. We started work at 630am today and worked straight to noon with no breakfast just to get it pruned with this humidity. I'm ready for a nap.
